Would you take revenge?

We often get hurt by others. When we feel hurt our first reaction is of anger then our mind start thinking about taking revenge or paying back the person in the same coin. However, on second thought, sometimes we let go our anger and move ahead or sometimes we think in the direction of taking revenge. When you are hurt do you let go or feel like taking revenge from the person who has hurt you? Do you feel that taking revenge won't serve any purpose and it could do more harm to yourself than good? Do you feel that taking revenge is an immature act? Image courtesy - Google

It means that you let go, if someone hurts you?

@dpk262006 I can even think of bad things, but never do them.

@TheInvisibleMan Apparently, you don't convert your bad feelings or negative thoughts into action.

I might think about revenge but that's as far as it goes - thinking about it.

It will be in your mind only to take revenge but you would not practically take revenge due to one reason or the other.

I don't consider revenge as an immature act. It's human nature to acct hastily when we are hurt. It takes wisdom, a lot of courage to stop that.

@toniganzon I am sorry to hear that your parents were killed. It was wiser on your part to not to go for revenge, as it would have caused trouble to you also.

If someone hurts you, will you take revenge in any form?

I feel angry but never think of taking revenge . What I do is get careful from that person so that I may not get hurt again by that person.

It is a saner approach to not to go for revenge. If we are able to control our anger and let go, that would be better course of action. Yes, you are right that we need to be more careful from those, who try to hurt us.

Taking revenge is wrong. When someone hurts me, I get angry, but I never make decisions when I am angry.

It is said that one should not take decision when s/he is in anger. It is wiser on your part that when someone hurts you and you get angry but you do not convert your anger into a revenge. Taking revenge also affects us.

@LadyDuck Yes, our action in anger may make us feel regretful at a later stage.

@Butterfingers Yeah, I got your point. It is better to let your anger cool down and then act. When we are angry, our mind prompts us to take revenge. PS - Thanks very much for responding to my old discussions, you made them active once again.

I think most of the time I will not take revenge. I will just feel angry but it is no need for me to take revenge because it is a kind of wasting time in my opinion. The bad people will deserve something bad sooner or later by themselves. I still think that good people deserve something good and bad people deserve something bad.

Sometimes you think of taking revenge, however, if you feel that it is practically not possible, you let go. Is not it?

In the heat of the moment it would probably cross my mind, but I would never go as far as actually doing it.

It means that the thought of taking revenge may cross your mind in the fit of anger but you would practically not go for it, as you know that it is not good in the long run.

Its best to move on in this type of situation; seeking revenge. Can turn out to be unpredictable, and one could regret what they have done to seek revenge.

I get angry yes, even very angry but revenge? I've never taken revenge on anyone. What would it tell about me if I had vengeance? I won't put myself low with such an act. It was never my thing to hurt someone back. It won't make me happy, it won't make me feel good regardless of whether they deserve it or not. I just let go and let God. As they say, the best revenge is to move on and get over it.
